Ooh, I'm looking forward to this!

omo omo omo
ajusshi~~~

yessss......cause i love him !!!!

definitely, definitely something i'll look forward to. they better get a female lead that's likeable. heehee

Oh, man, since the PD is the same guy who did Story of a Man, I am expecting some great stuff. That drama was beautiful to look at.

Yay!!!!! Perfect news to end the day :) even though May is far away, it's my birthday so this will be the perfect present!! Joo Won <3 <3 <3

Seems interesting, may check it out.

Awesome! Will there be subs?

love him, but i heard he dropped out of Moonsun because OJK brothers was extended.
Sad, i really think he would have made the better 2nd lead than JIW

Speaking of Moon the Embraces the Sun, when is that recap coming?! I've been stalking dramabeans just to read that one recap.

JOO WON!!! haha. Seriously though, while I love this guy, I've been waiting for him to do something...headliner like, you know?

I really do hope he does amazing in this.

And, if he gets to sing, extra plus!

10 billion krw is about $8.7 million U.S., roughly the budget of a high-end American independent drama film. I take a scholarly interest in how visible the alleged production budget is in the finished product, and am always curious about how the actors are compensated, given some of the working conditions we've read about. That said, this sounds great on paper! The mask reminds me a little of V for Vendetta. Like City Hunter, I'll bet it only has to be worn when necessary. ;-)

Joo Won~!!!! Tae-hui ajusshi!!!!! <3

Whatever he comes in...I'll definitely be watching. XD

Is this the drama Jang Hyuk turned down b/c people said it was too similar to his other drama's or something? I just remember that manhwa cover since the design is so distinctive?
I'm not watching OB so I haven't seen him in action yet, but this drama seems like my cup of tea exactly so looking forward to the release :)

YES! YES! YES! YESSSSSSSSSS!!!!

Joo Won <3

alls i gots ta say is.. HELL YEAH

Nice. Dunno much about the writer (Green Rose had a decent story but I can't remember the dialogue being particularly memorable) But the PD is fabulous. Story of a Man was beautifully shot. And Joo Won at this point has only ever done massive hit dramas (Baker King was his debut role, I think) so may his lucky streak continue. Imma look forward to this one!

YESS!!!! Joo Won, baby, I love you. BUT MAY?!!

2012 looks like it's going be great on the drama front. Drama gods, don't let me down.

It's got my interest! May is not THAT far away. It's fun to have things to look forward to. :)

Oh I love Joo Won oppa...your smile makes me going crazy...:D
can't wait to see you as a hero....Joo Won oppa, fighting!!

This year's City Hunter ey... Hrm... Maybe I will check it out....

PD of Story of a Man? Plus Joo-won? Count me in.

Just let me get through the January madness first. ;)

joo won....!!
i was sad when he dropped 2nd role in moon tha embrace the sun.. but with this kind of drama..?!? count me in ;-) i wonder who would be the female lead...

Yeay... JOO WON.. I love him since Baker King Kim Tak Goo.. plus his role in Ojakgyo Brothers are so addictive.

Who will be the heroine... Can they cast Uee (ehem... ) or maybe someone who is young and fresh and baddass.

I loooove Joo Won...he acts well and has the sweetest voice...hmmm

So this drama will take set on 70s?
hope it was present...it will be more exciting!!
Is it May yet?

let's pray it's not the city hunter of this year. ^^

Joo Won as the lead? That alone already makes this better than City Hunter.

I'm crossing my fingers that they pick a good actress for the female lead. Hopefully it's not some idol or someone from SM who likes to shove their talent down people's throats.

Interesting..

OMG!!! More of Joo Won's amazing cheekbones, dimple and smile?! Bring it on!!! I love him in Ojakkyo brothers. His chemistry with UEE is great. The way he smiles and looks at her across the table is so heart-melting!!

All I have to say is HELL YES!

I have fallen in love with him from watching snippets of Okjakkyo Brothers, he is so charming! Please main lead actress be someone I like and not an idol.. nothing against idols cos I do love kpop but I'm getting sick of them getting lots of drama roles when there are countless rookies actors/actresses waiting for their big hit.

agree with 'Joo Won love', his acting is subtle when it has to be & dramatic at the right moments- I think & hope he'll go far.
addicted to ojakgyo bros mostly coz of him & those cute moments with Uee- if only I could bottle up their chemistry & sell it to other dramas & make billions of won :p

Doesn't sound bad at all.. particularly if there's a chance that it might be 'this year's City Hunter'!

YESSSS YESSSS YESSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I really love Joo Won since Ojakgyo Brothers and Baker King ~ ~ that's GREAAAT for him to do that for this drama & make him to become so popular and getting award somedaaaaay!!! ;) :D He's lucky to have an excellence chance for his importance future, mm!

Oooo, Is that same person from Story Of A Man...?? WOOOOOOT, I will be loooooking forward to THIS!!!! I can't help myself when I get excited, haha ~ ~ <3 <3

Hwaiting, Joo Won!

Ooh lala. He is so easy on the eyes. No to that mask.

I'm so excited. Joo Won as a lead.

Love him in Baker King and Ojakgyo Brothers. I think he can pull this off. Go Joo Won.

Wonder who will KBS cast as the heroine in this drama. For me, Joo Won alone is more than enough.

I hope that people can stop comparing him with Kang Dong Won.. They may be look alike in some angle but I think Joo Won is Joo Won, love his acting and his beautiful eyes.

ohmaiigahh May can't come soon enough! xP I'm just so excited about Joo Won as the lead!

Okay..this should cover my disappointment for not seeing him in Moon. Can:t wait until May!!

OMGGGG not gonne miss my my Mr dimples cutypie for a longtime after OB is over , yaaaayyy me happy :)

hope it'll turn out to be another hit drama for him.. my heart simply melts at the sight of Joo Won.. I'm not so sure how to survive until May once OB ends its run

ahjusshi! ahjusshi! ahjusshi! ok, i'm done... ^.^

I'm in! Love Joo Won. He is one of the good young actor in the industry. Hope he will do well.

Can't wait... Sad that Ojakgyo Brothers will end soon, but I must say, OB is one of the best K-drama I've ever watched since turning into K-drama addict in 2004.

Must watch this because of Joo Won.. Joo Won fighthing.

Hmmm... I think KBS will cast an idol star to be the lead opposite Joo Won... Suzy of Miss A maybe? HAHA. I think she look compatible with Joo Won.

Happy for him.. ^__^

I need to spare time to watch him in Ojakkyo Brothers. Doggoneit, I had fallen curious and clicked a YT link OST song off this show. Darn good acting, well, I knew he was good since I first laid eyes on him in Baker King but now I feel like I'm a puppet on a string for this guy. Not healthy for me~
